Question of Franchise For Women
Was Under Discussion, But
Lost on Division.
The House Down to Business Again,
the Reoess Seems to Have
Lent Enthusiasm.
The provincial legislature is again in
session, the holidays being over, and
tbe members seem to have more attachment and enthusiasm for their duties
than Immediately preceding tbe rscess.
Tbe elections act took up a great deal
of the time last week, many amendments being proposed and some
voted down, notably tbe proposal to extend thc franchlso to women. A suggestion wus also made by the Socialist
members to reduce the required amount
of deposit from $250 to��$150 to enable
one to become a candidate at an election for the legislature.
The leader of the opposition questioned its advisability, as he regards
tbe present deposit ns not standing in
ibe way of a candidate of substance,
while preventing irresponsibles from
entering tlio field, and thus putting tbe
state to needless expense, and perhaps
defeating a worthy man by senselessly
cutting up ths field.
Mr, Wilson was also disposed to question the propriety of the change, although he intimated tbat he had small
preference ln tho matter.
The favorite proposal of Paterson was
advanced, namely, that the oath to be
administered to a voter should Include
a statement that he bas paid his revenue tax. He held that this would greatly swell the provincial revenue.
The attorney ��� generul, however,
thought that it interfered with the
principle ol universal suffrage, and re
fused to accept it.
Mr. Drury's proposal to render it
compulsory for deputy returning officers to mako a scheduled return of
votes cast at their polling booths was
carried.
Tbe bill also excludes from the right
of franchise those of pure Indian blood
or of Indian extraction living within
thn confines of a reserve.
Of spocial interest to Victorians, because of tho principle involved, and of
general Interest to tbe people of the
provinco whu nre financially Interested
in all publio works, was ,the debate
arising out of MoNlven's motion for a
return giving tho report of the arbitrators and all corporations in connection
with the contract at Government houie.
It appears that said reports reflect seriously on architect Rattenbury, and tbe
chief commissioner declined to disclose
that portion of the report, as he held
that the architect had no chance to defend, himself, while at the; same time
promising an investigation. It transpired during .tlio debate that the report
' of the arbitrators was unanimous, .Jhe.
board consisted of Thomas HooBer^of
Victoria, appointed by the government;
A. Maxwell Mulr, appointed by the contractor ; and Mr. Dalton, of Vancouver,
selected by the two named. '
Finally, Mr. MoNivea withdrew his
motion on receiving the assuranee that
an Investigation would be held by the
government on tbo cQnstitutipn.ot* commission,, the date of their slttingto be
disclosed in a few days.

From Spokane Into B. 0.
Tile Canadian Pacific Railway To Kilter
WaiblUKton State.
The Spokesman-Review is responsible
for tbe following article, which looks
as lf tbe C.P.R. would soon be running
their trains direct to Spokane:���From
Portland comes semi-official confirmation of the report thut,-the Canadian
Pacific has definitely .decidod to build
into Spokane. Undoubtedly this great
Company Is directly back ofthe Turner-
Corbin enterprise. It has had a large
corps of surveyors ln the field between
Spokane and Its lines in British Columbia, and thero is every reason to believe tbat they have found a satisfactory route.
If these plans are carried out, Spokane will soon have direct connection
with the largest individual system on
the American continent, Of its own
lines, leased lines, and roads under construction, the Canadian Pncillo bas an
aggregate mileage of 864(1. It has stupendous resources. It was Incorporated in 1881 with a princely gift from the
Canadian government of 125,000,000 ln
casta, 25,000,000 acres of land, and 713
miles of completed road. About 18,000.
000 acres of land grant remains unsold.
It is selling these lands at the rate of
about 1,500,000 acres per year, and is
receiving therefrom about f3 per acre,
While the construction of this road
into Spokane might not be followed by
sweeping reductions in freight rates,
the ultimate effect would be to giv.e
Spojcane lower rates; " It would also
bulla up the country alonajuido tbe now
line, and afford better .connections between Spokane and Canada. Developments ln this -important nndortaking
will be awaited with; the keenest
Interest.
The tossing of a dime, followed hy a
presentiment, lead to the discovery ol
one of tho richest mines in the Lardeau, The story of how Frank F Fulmer found the Beatrice is one ol the
most remarkable in the history ot the
district. In May, 1897, Fulmer was in
the hotel business at Kaslo. Somo
time previous, be and his partner, Mrs
Mary Anderson, had grubstaked a pros*
peotor, by the unique cognomen o(
" Fatty the Pig," to go to the Lardeau,
Not bearing from him for several weeks,
Fulmer thought he would hubt the man
���up, and located' hln at Trout Lake
'oity, where he was on the point of sell
iiog some locations by which't'he three
would have been largely remunerated,
but like many nhother deal, It fell
���through.
: The brief impressions gained ol the
district were possibly responsible for a
large sized " hunch " Fulmer took to
make a trip hltiifeelf. He knew little of
tbe formation of the country, and, to
settle the' question iu wblch direction
he should go, tossed a dime three times
in the air. Heads was to go north
tails south; For three successive times
heads came up, anjl so be journeyed in
a northerly direotlon from Trout Lake
city. Six days of hazardous work
climbing the hills with a pack, brought
him to near the head waters of Mohawk
oreek- It was a sultry June evening.
Seven thoksands of feet up the mountain side, away above timber, the air
was hot and oppressive, Shortly the
clouds gathered and seemed to sink to
earth, surrounding everything In a
misty veil. Thon suddenly the thunder crashed, echoing and vibrating
through the mountains. Lightning
flashed, until the heavens were literally
ablaze. For hours Fulmer lay stretched
flat to the earth covered in his blankets, for the sight, he says, dimmed
the eyes, and the atmosphere so heavily
charged with the electric fluid simply
stank of sulphur. Elsewhere in the
nearby valleys other prospectors viewed
this battle of the elements 8,000 feet up
in tbeairwltb wonderment,little dream.
ing that ln tho centre of this fearful
storm area was ono of their kin.
Next morning Fullmer was to experi.
ence another sensation. The .storm
bad spent itself. Old Sol gradually
arose and warmed tlio earth, and tho
hillside was wrapped in a filmy veil
caused by the sun drying up the moisture. Looking up toward the summit
tho prospector was confronted with a
mirage, Rubbing his eyes to bo sure
be wus awake, the scene did not pass
from bis view. In the distance but
some few hundred feot he saw a big
mine In full operation, with tunnbls,
o.ie dumps and buildings. The vision
did not fade. Then, following a strange
presentiment that after all it night bo
so, be climbed up the mountain in the
direction of the mirage, fascinated with
the sight. Just as he was about to
reach one of the buildings, as he
thought, .he mirage suddenly passed,
from view, and Fulmer found himralf
standing oh five feet of solid galena ore,'
embedded in carbonates, Stranger
than fiction, a presentiment of a mino
had actually been the cause of leading
him on to this rich vein, .He* staked
the showing and two other claims as
the Beatrice group. His "hunch" had
panned ont.
The Beatrice group is owned by the
.Beatrice Mines, Limited, with head
offices- at RevolBtoke. Sumo 830,000
have been spent in the mine, and 300
tons of exceptionally high grade silver-
lead-gold ore have been shipped to the
Trail smelter. The shipments gave a
net average return of $103.40, after paying for rawhiding from the summit to
Thompson's lauding, and $18 for freight
to Trail and treatment.
A deal is now pending for tho sale of
48 per cent of the stock of the company,
which is capitalized at$500,000 in 1,000*
;000 shares at 60 cents per share. Tbe
'sale is made on a basis of tbe par value
lot the stock. With this available find,
,the company purposes to develop the
mine oh a'large scale, build a tramway
|and Etiatnp mill,
' The property is situated on a branch
of tne Selkirk mountains, and lies near
tbe summit, dividing the north fork' of
the Lardeau river and Pool creek, a
tributary to Fish river. The claims
'are located at the extreme head of1 Mohawk creek. To reach the group from
Camborne, one takes a rawhide trail of
-five miles.
��� Briefly described, the formation in
which the claims lay is an area of highly stratified sedimentary rock that comprises a great thickness of slates and
jichists with their bads of guartzlte and
limestone, standing nearly vertical.
In the slates two known veins exist on
tbe property, and a network of smaller
veins is found in the schists.
Ou what is known as tbe number one
vein, the original discovery, considerable development work has been done,
the formation being slate. Where
stripped, the ledge measures from six
to twelve feet in width on the surface,
including both eloan ore and carbonates. A shaft was sunk 95 feet on the
showing, and at a depth of 45 feet the
first level was opened. Between hero
and the surface, stopes have been started and a considerable quantity'of ore
shipped. At tho 95 foot level a crosscut tunnel bas been connected with the
shaft, and the ore was drifted on for
105 feet, running from 18 inches to four
and five feet of clean ore. From tbis
level to the surface it is estimated that
3,000 ton? of ore are blocked out.
At a vertical depth of 345 feet what
will eventually be the math working
tunnel has been driven a distance of
555 feet toward the voin, which it is estimated will be struck within 250 feet.
Meanwhile an intermediate crosscut
has been run with a view to tapping
what is known as tho No. 2 or quartz
vein, as also the galena vein. This
crosscut is in 300 feet, and is fast ap
proacMng tho gold-quartz vein whicli
is expected to be encountered within
50 feet. A blind ledge of quartz fully
20 feet in width was cut through, assaying from $'��� to $25 In gold. Devel
opinent is now being prosecuted in the
continuation of this tunnol. On tho
surface, the No.2 vein, assayed In SOlbs,
sample lots, gave return srunning from
$14.50 to $72 in gold. Mr. George Attwood, the noted English mining engineer who sampled tbe property, stated
that the ore was absolutely free milling,
and strongly advised that this vein be
opened up.
The mine equipment for the housing
and comfort of the company's employees Is substantial, few mines in tbo district surpassing It. Now that funds
wllf shortly be available lo carry for*
ward the development on a large scale,
thero is every reason to believe that in
the near future another rich producing
property will be added to the growing
list of the Lardeau's shippers.

FRIDAY. JANUARY 22, 11)04.
LOCAL MINING DEALS.
There arc no less than three mining* deals pending which will involve a large sum of money, a good
part oi which will be paid clown.
One of these deals is on a Ferguson
properly, another, a Trout Lake
property, an.l the third at Poplar
creek.
Sho"ld these deals go through,
which undoubtedly at least two of
them will, it would be a splendid
tiling for this section ofthe country,
for there are not enough steadily
working mines in the Lardeau, and
the way tilings are now, those who
buy or bond claims usually do so
with the intention of making thein
repay the purchase price as soon as
possible. A few more mines near
Ferguson like the "Cup" or
"Nettie" would make the town
V��ry good even in the winter, and
undoubtedly many more exist, and
fully as near.
At present, there is a fair amount
of development being done about
Ferguson. There Is probably more
than has been known for lour years,
and as far as we have been able to
learn, the work is giving good results. Particularly this may be said
of the Union* Jack, owned by
Thompson, Kirkpatrick and Carter, three miles above Ferguson.
Cy. this property, work lias been
carried forward all winter, and the
lead is getting more promising
every week. A fine lead lias been
encountered, and rich ore is beginning to ccme in, and the owners
feel confident that lots of fine ore
will be found before spring, and the
mine will prove a big one.
EDITORIAL NOTES.
The Eagle is indebted to the secretary of the bureau for provincial
information, R. ii. (iosnell, Victoria, for a neatly bound copy of the
year book of British Columbia.
The book is full of tiseltil and authentic information, und it might
profitably he In lhe possession of
every man who takes un interest in
the welfare of the province. Copies
may be purchased at one dollar
each, With the year book came,
as usual, a bulletin relating to the
game of B.C., and having a list of
thc birds and mammals to be found
inthe country.
than was anticipated, and the Lardeau in general will profit largely
on this account ; at least, it will the
sooner reap the advantages that are
coming.
A directors' meeting of the Ophir-
Lade Mining Syndicate, Limited,
was held at Camborne on the 16th
instant, for the purpose oi discussing
the sale ol the company's properly
to Ihe Great Northern Mines, Limited. There was a large attendance
of directors and interested shareholders, and there was not a dissenting voice against the proposals that
brought the members together.
Japan and Russia have not yet
come to blows, but the countries are
still scrapping on paper. it is
hoped their bone of contention may
soon be effectually disposed of,
either by diplomacy or open warfare. There has been bad blood between the two nations for years,
and it is about time the dispute was
wiped out.
The question as to bringing on
the general elections at once or to
wait until after another session is
held, is keeping Laurier and his colleagues at their wits' end. Whatever it may be, the present opposition will be found pret'y well
prepared whenever the elections
may be held.
